Isn't Ferguson basically one of those speedbump towns that makes most of it's revenue by hassling people driving through it on their way to other places?

When you start breaking random poo poo in the area, your protests stops being a protest and starts being a riot.

effectual posted:^ Is Finland a pretty white country? Whites mostly get violent when they have someone else to hate. I'm sure that's very comforting to the random shop owners who's windows got broken and the motorists who were attacked by protesters, none of which had anything to do with the guy being protested about's death.

IMO, if you point any kind of gun-looking object at a cop you are asking for it. Anyone should know that that is a dumb idea.

Ytlaya posted:As an addict, I can't even imagine being in withdrawal while in jail. Not only are you having to deal with withdrawal, which is hellish and torture in and of itself, but you're also having to deal with the stress of being in jail and not being given access to what little can help or ease the withdrawal. IMO, if you hate withdrawal, you should probably not be doing drugs that can cause it when your dumb rear end gets arrested and thrown in jail.

joeburz posted:because people in these positions tend to not view the addict as a person, or at least one worth empathizing with in the first place anyways. they see the addict as vermin or scum not worth their time and only worth derision. Haha you should read TCC sometime. Most of the people who do the hard stuff are, indeed, vermin or scum and only worth derision.

Sharkie posted:Would you make fun of a person who went into diabetic shock if the police didn't treat them as well? If they got diabetes because of an unquenching hunger for sweets, after the doctor told them that eating sweets would be a dumb idea because they're prone to diabetes, then yes, I would.

Sharkie posted:Cool so you just derive pleasure from people suffering and dying because, in your mind, they deserved it for making bad choices. How about AIDS victims who had unprotected sex? Actually, you know what, I'm just going to leave this alone as you're either failing to conceptualize this incident as involving a real person who has feelings and a family just like you, or you're a sadist. Or you're just trolling. I am perfectly fine with laughing at people suffering because of dumb life choices.

Radbot posted:Yes, someone said that in the thread, not sure what that's supposed to be evidence of besides one person's opinion. It's hardly evidence of a lack of good faith debate, that's for sure. It is when 90% of the posts in the thread are in a similar vein, and when almost every iteration of this kind of thread has had people literally posting "Kill all police", wishing for police to die during traffic stops, etc.

It's kind of funny watching people flop around all over the place and get mad at AR for being anal about wording poo poo properly when that is literally how she makes her living-- using exactly the right terms is of critical importance when it comes to legal poo poo.

Megaman's Jockstrap posted:Also let's not forget this cop couldn't beat a 17 year old kid in a fight even with a Taser. By his own admission he's a pathetic wimp who thought a teenager was going to beat him into unconscious and then, for some reason, execute him. Cops have weapons specifically so that it's not a fair fight. Do you think an arrest is an old tyme duel?
